Had a great day Sunday with my 1972 Lemon Lime 240Z at the Misslewood Concours d'Elegance in Beverly, MA. She took Best in Class at a very prestigious show. This is great news for us 240's owners as the Datsun name and mark are starting to get noticed. Considering the quality of cars that were in attendance this is huge.

I need to get my vacuum control valve re - plated. The piece on the end is aluminum and my plater has warned me that the aluminum will disintegrate in the plating process. Doesn't look like it comes part easily. Any suggestions as to what I can do. Thanks.

What will happen is that he will end up doing a deal "off" e-bay. A serious collector won't bid on e-bay....he'll contact the seller after it doesn't sell and they'll work out a deal. Happens all the time (that's what I do).
Having done a few of these restoration's this is a $20-$25K maybe. It's a nice car. There is a mish - mash of parts in the engine bay....some correct clamps some Auto Zone clamps....braided hoses and non braided hoses. Be interesting to see what it ends up at.
